For the first time in sports history, a woman head coach has won Coach of the Year in back-to-back seasons in a professional men’s league.
Take a minute and let that sink in. A league that started two years ago continues to be a pioneer in sports and equality.
Last year, Nancy Lieberman was named Coach of the Year and won the BIG3. Lieberman was the first woman head coach of a men’s professional team.
The BIG3 proves that it’s more than a game. The BIG3 is a progressive league that promotes diversity and inclusion.
